Hypoxia-inducible Factor (HIF) Asparagine Hydroxylase Is Identical to Factor Inhibiting HIF (FIH) and Is Related to the Cupin Structural Family

TL;DR: Assays using recombinant FIH and HIF-α fragments revealed that FIH is the enzyme that hydroxylates the CAD asparagine residue, that the activity is directly inhibited by cobalt(II) and limited by hypoxia, and that the oxygen in the alcohol of the hydroxyasparagine residues is directly derived from dioxygen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular oxygen sensing: Crystal structure of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase (PHD2).

TL;DR: The structure of the catalytic domain of human PHD2 provides insights into the hypoxic response, helps to rationalize a clinically observed mutation leading to familial erythrocytosis, and will aid in the design of PHD selective inhibitors for the treatment of anemia and ischemic disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expanding the diversity of chemical protein modification allows post-translational mimicry.

TL;DR: A chemical tagging approach that enables the attachment of multiple modifications to bacterially expressed (bare) protein scaffolds allows reconstitution of functionally effective mimics of higher organism PTMs, and creates protein probes that included sensitive systems for detection of mammalian brain inflammation and disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metagenome Mining Reveals Polytheonamides as Posttranslationally Modified Ribosomal Peptides

TL;DR: A ribosomal origin is demonstrated of the marine sponge–derived polytheonamides, exceptionally potent, giant natural-product toxins, which broadens the biosynthetic scope of ribosomally synthesized peptides and proteins and creates new opportunities for peptide and protein bioengineering.
Journal ArticleDOI

Posttranslational hydroxylation of ankyrin repeats in IκB proteins by the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) asparaginyl hydroxylase, factor inhibiting HIF (FIH)

TL;DR: It is shown that the human HIF asparaginyl hydroxylase, factor inhibiting HIF (FIH), also efficiently hydroxymates specific asparagsinyl (Asn)-residues within proteins of the IκB family, suggesting that FIH-dependent ARD hydroxyation is a common occurrence and potentially providing an oxygen-sensitive signal to a diverse range of processes.
